#745 - The River of Destiny in the Backflow: What Chu Xianping Wants - I am the villain in the book

The Kui Dragon Elders Council consisted of five elders.

Currently, the Azure Platform Elder's token was in his hand, the Black Platform belonged to Chu Xianping, the Yellow Platform to Lu Hongji, and the White Platform to Zhuang Zhiming.

Great.

Chu Xianping had already deceived Zhuang Zhiming to the point of confusion, and now he had joined forces with Lu Hongji...

What the hell was there to play?

Holding the Kui Dragon token, Wei Changtian's face was very unsightly.

However, the next moment, Xu Suisui said something even more devastating.

"N-Now we can't hold an elders meeting anymore."

"What??"

Wei Changtian suddenly turned his head: "Why??"

"B-Because the elders meeting has to change the Grand Elder every ten years..."

Xu Suisui explained softly: "And this year it happens to be the Yellow Platform Elder, which is Lu Hongji."

To prevent one person from becoming too powerful, the Kui Dragon Elders would change the "Rotating Chairman" every ten years.

Xuantian Sword's remnant soul had mentioned this before, so Wei Changtian knew about it.

But he didn't expect things to be so coincidental.

"We had one about half a month ago, and then there's been no news since..." Xu Suisui answered truthfully.

Half a month ago.

At that time, the Qian and Hui countries should have still been in a stalemate with Xin Feng, and would use the traitor from the Buddhist sect in a few days.

And he had already begun to suspect Chu Xianping, and had Yan Huaiqing take the initiative to test him.

Looking at it this way, the last elders meeting was probably the fuse for Chu Xianping's decision to "fly away".

It was just that Xu Suisui didn't hear it at the time.

"Alright."

Now that things had come to this, Wei Changtian had gradually recovered from his previous anger.

He didn't blame Xu Suisui any further, but shook his head and asked:

"In the book you read, the Moon Picking Sword should have ultimately been obtained by the Kui Dragon, right?"

"Yes."

Xu Suisui replied softly: "But now the plot has changed too much, I don't know if these things will still happen."

"Don't worry about it, it's likely that it has already happened."

Wei Changtian sighed: "Alas, if I'm not mistaken, the Moon Picking Sword Manual is now in Lu Hongji's hands."

"Ah? W-Why is that?"

Xu Suisui's breathing suddenly became rapid, and her appearance made Wei Changtian pause.

"In the original plot, Lu Hongji was the first to obtain the Moon Picking Sword Manual?"

"H-How did you know?" Xu Suisui opened her mouth in astonishment.

"It's very simple, because in my experience, this damn Heavenly Dao will generally try to correct the changed plot."

Wei Changtian curled his lips: "I've experienced too many of these situations before."

"As long as the change isn't too great, the plot will often inexplicably return to the right track."

"The Moon Picking Sword seems to be the same."

"No matter what the difference in the process, the result is the same result..."

"."

No matter what the difference in the process, the result is the same result.

This sentence sounded a bit mysterious, but Xu Suisui, who had also transmigrated into this world, immediately understood what Wei Changtian meant.

In fact, it was very simple.

It was like when Wei Changtian first set up an ambush to kill Xiao Feng in the Wei Mansion.

According to the original plot of "Martial Arts Great Peak", Xiao Feng would not have had that Pure Jade Pendant.

But just before Xiao Feng went to the Wei Mansion, the "Wheel of Fate" shifted in advance, forcibly adding a "scene" to him, ultimately allowing him to escape.

In the original book, it was "crippling Wei Changtian's cultivation and leaving triumphantly".

In reality, it was "escaping with the help of the Pure Jade Pendant".

Obviously, the processes were not the same.

But the result was the same, which was that Xiao Feng did not die.

And this was what Wei Changtian called "the self-correction of fate".

Of course, the subsequent facts proved that this "correction" was not omnipotent.

When the magnitude of the plot change was large enough, so large that it exceeded the upper limit that could be corrected, even "Heavenly Dao" was powerless.

For example, the battle at the top of Smoke Cloud Mountain.

Xiao Feng brought five Rank Two experts, and logically speaking, he could have avoided death again, or even counter-killed Wei Changtian.

But perhaps even "Heavenly Dao" didn't expect that Wei Changtian would actually have a perverted thing like a "system".

A "God Strike Talisman" completely reversed the situation, and even directly broke through the upper limit of fate's self-correction, ultimately successfully killing Xiao Feng.

Thinking about it this way, "fate" might be like a long river rolling forward, even if there are twists and turns along the way, its flow must be from high to low.

And "system" was the cheat that could make the river of fate flow backward.

This rule not only applied to Wei Changtian, but also to Xu Suisui.

In the matter of the Wei Ning dispute, because Wei Changtian first used the Puppet Pill to coerce the people of the Same Boat Society and successfully supported Ning Wenjun to the throne, and then used God Strike to kill Wu Ding and Bai Youheng one after another, plus Xu Suisui's self-righteous actions in it, this ultimately resulted in Ning Yongnian's burial in Lingbo Pavilion, a result that should not have happened.

And this huge variable then led to this great battle involving seven countries.

In other words, if there was no system, if there was no Xu Suisui's "Lingbo Pavilion reconciliation", perhaps this war would not have happened now.

But with these things, the river of fate flowed backward.

But the matter of the Moon Picking Sword was not the same.

On the one hand, although Xu Suisui was intent on changing the plot, she didn't have the ability and mind to do so, and was played around by Chu Xianping and Lu Hongji in the elders meeting.

On the other hand, Wei Changtian might have had this ability, but he delegated the Kui Dragon affairs to Chu Xianping to handle, and he himself didn't interfere at all.

When the only two people in this world who could change "Great Dao Fate" had no achievements, it was not difficult to understand why the Moon Picking Sword Manual still fell into Lu Hongji's hands.

"But..."

"How can you be sure that the sword manual is definitely in Lu Hongji's hands now?"

After a long silence, Xu Suisui still didn't understand one thing.

She looked at Wei Changtian with a wry smile and asked unwillingly: "Maybe, like the invasion of the four countries, this plot has also changed?"

"."

Raising his head to look at Xu Suisui, Wei Changtian shook his head and said slowly:

"Although I don't know how Lu Hongji obtained the sword manual in the book you read."

"But in reality, he could only have snatched it from Old Zhang Tou."

"And the matter of Old Zhang Tou and the Moon Picking Sword, besides you and me, very few people know about it."

"Yang Liushi, Chu Xianping, Du Chang, Qin Zhengqiu, Li Wutong, Agou, there are only these six people in total."

"I only told Yang Liushi recently."

"Then tell me, among the remaining five people, who would leak the secret to Lu Hongji? And who would have the opportunity to contact Lu Hongji?"

"Besides Chu Xianping, I can't think of any other possibility."

"He not only knows the secret of the Moon Picking Sword, knows Old Zhang Tou's whereabouts back to the White Hall, but also can contact Lu Hongji through the Kui Dragon Elders Council."

"Plus his current act of betrayal, Old Zhang Tou was 99% sold out by him."

Rubbing his forehead, Wei Changtian paused for a moment, his tone somewhat self-deprecating.

"Also, he left me a sentence the night he turned against me."

"He said that everyone has their own aspirations."

"At that time, I was wondering, what exactly are Chu Xianping's aspirations?"

"What exactly does he want that I can't give him?"

"Following me, he has power and money."

"Even if this power can't be considered all-powerful, he can still cover the sky with one hand in this acre of land in Da Ning and Da Shu, even Ning Wenjun and Ning Yu Ke have to give him some face."

"He betrayed me, who can give him such great power?"

"So, I couldn't figure it out before."

"But now I finally understand..."

Shaking his head, Wei Changtian didn't continue to speak.

But Xu Suisui, who was finally "smart" for once, stared blankly with wide eyes, muttering to herself:

"Are you saying that what Chu Xianping wants is... the power of the Moon Picking Sword?"

"Congratulations, you guessed half of it right."

Smiling, Wei Changtian even had the mood to joke: "I've been guessing all night, now it's your turn."

"There's still half left, can you guess again?"

"I... I can't guess."

Xu Suisui frowned and thought for a long time, but still couldn't guess what the other half was.

And Wei Changtian didn't answer, just casually threw the token in his hand into Xu Suisui's arms.
